Chapter 162: Death Without Turning a Blind Eye
The man seemed to be a ruthless and desireless monk, and he didn't even glance at Widow Li's smooth body, and his breathing was even and powerful, and there was no change from before.
It's like, the widow Li in front of her is no different from a chicken with a feather and a pig with a feather.
The man easily untied the rope from the basket on the beam and tied it in a knot.
Widow Li was stunned, she didn't know what the man was going to do, and she didn't think about it for a long time.
Soon, Widow Lee understood what this rope loop was for.
Because, the man carried the rope loop in one hand and sent the head of Widow Li into the rope pass with the other, and the whole head was put into the rope loop, and as soon as the rope mouth was tightened, Widow Li would be hung up and die with a whimper.
From beginning to end, L's light and breezy appearance did not look like he was trying to kill a person, but an ordinary mad dog and a mouse.
Widow Li was shocked and said, "You, why did you want to kill me? ”
The man looked at Widow Li like a fool and said, "You really don't understand? ”
Widow Li shook her head in astonishment.
The man's solemn face smiled rarely, and when Widow Li thought that the other party would tell her the answer, the man said very calmly: "Ben Hou likes to make people die without turning a blind eye. ”
As soon as the rope was tightened, Widow Li was hung in the air, and found that her hands and feet could be moved, and she was busy pulling the rope around her neck, but it was getting tighter and tighter, and her eyes were more and more blurred.
It's just that she understood too late, her life ended hastily, and before she died, she only had time to see the man who was quite disgusted with his sword and picked her red clothes......
On the second day, a large group of people and horses approached Liuhe Village, looking at the costumes, not the catchers of Jiangyin County, nor the minions of the black-clothed and masked Nine Princes.
When he arrived in the village, he was taken by Li Lizheng and went straight to the third room of the Liu family, and without saying a word in the hospital, he wanted to arrest Liu Wu and the Li widow.
Liu Wu walked out of the house, looking at the soldiers of the crows and crows in a courtyard, and the bloodstained Zhang Daya who was tied to the front, and couldn't help but feel a pan in his heart, it must be this Zhang Daya who couldn't bear the heavy punishment and put the basin on Widow Li and Liu Wu.
Liu Fu Zheng fixed his expression a little, and said gently: "My lord, I don't know what crime the folk girl has committed, why she has to be detained?" ”
The water prefect looked at the inconspicuous little peasant girl in front of him majestically, and was stunned to find a familiar figure standing behind him, and the water prefect couldn't help but feel a sense of tightness.
This person has been seen by the prefect of Shui, and when he entered the palace to report to the emperor, he saw the side face of this person, the widow of Yanhou, the emperor's henchman, and the "night commander" who was frightened by the people in the court and did not see his true face.
If he wasn't the secret envoy of the Long Live Lord, he wouldn't know the true identity of Yan Bei, in the eyes of outsiders, the Yan family has already died, not to mention that he can't turn over the storm in the future, and it is impossible to even rehabilitate Zhao Xue.
At this time, Yan Bei's eyes were full of cold wind, which frightened Shui Xingzhou's heart, and secretly said, how could the Night Commander be dormant here? Still with a little peasant girl?
Even if the little peasant girl can be with the night commander, then it goes without saying that this little peasant girl is not only not an enemy, but also may be an informant on her side, and she must not move, and if she does, she may destroy the mysterious plan of the Long Live Lord.
The originally majestic face of the water prefect instantly bloomed into ten thousand chrysanthemums, and was immediately replaced by amiability, and said with a pleasant face: "Zhang Daya, this girl, dared to embroider a dragon picture, and appeared in the Nine Princes' Mansion, was stolen by thieves, and the heart of framing was known to passers-by. She confessed that this was not embroidered by her, but by her cousin and Miss Liu, but is there such a thing? ”
Liu Wu glared at Zhang Daya darkly, but unfortunately the current Zhang Daya was tortured and beaten, and she didn't even have the strength to speak.
Liu Wu sighed and said, "My lord, it's true that Zhang Daya has been to the house, but she came to visit her cousin. Because of the good embroidery, I taught my sister embroidery for a few days, and also helped Huangjia Buzhuang embroider the 12 zodiac pillows, among which the zodiac dragon, given to the nine princes for Jiao, sold to ordinary people for worms, absolutely no dragon, Zhizhou can send someone to Huangjia Buzhuang to ask, where to ship the account book, are evidence-based. ”
Shui Xingzhou nodded secretly, at such a time of crisis, she can still be so sober-minded, so sharp-toothed, so unreasonable, this peasant girl is not simple, she has something extraordinary, no wonder she was impressed by Lord Yan and took it for her own use.
Shui Xingzhou glanced at the deputy commander sent by the Ninth Fifth Master on his side, and said with a solemn face: "This official is not one of those confused officials, he can't wronged the good people, but he can't let the bad people go, let alone listen to one-sided words, come here!" ”
Shui Xingzhou said quickly to the catcher behind him: "Go, escort Widow Li out to confront her, Zhang Daya confessed here, and there is naturally something greasy inside." ”
The catchers smashed the door of the house for a long time, and the door of the house did not open for a long time, and the catchers raised their feet and rushed into the house like wolves, only to see the stones nesting in the corner of the wall and being frightened and silent.
The head catcher touched the cold quilt, and came out to say to Shui Xingzhou: "Lord Qiyu, Widow Li's quilt is cold, and the time to leave is not short, will it be a fear of crime and absconding......
The water prefect shook his head and said, "It's too early to make a conclusion. If you run away, Qi has the reason to throw his son down, the valuables in this house are still there, you should not go far, hurry up and arrest them everywhere, and return to the case quickly!! ”
As soon as the order was passed down, I saw a young junior running over quickly, and when he saw Li Lizheng, he waved his hand, his eyes blinked like cramps, and he was so anxious that he jumped.
Li Li was afraid that the future would collide with the adult, so he shook his head and signaled the future student to leave first, but then not only did he not leave, but he also jumped in over the earthen wall, and said anxiously: "Li Zheng, just now Zhao Rong'er ran to me crying, saying that her mother, her mother died, and Widow Li also hanged herself in her house." ”
Not only did Li Lizheng hear this, but even the water lord and the people who were present heard it.
A large group of people flocked to the Zhao family in an instant.
Liu Wu has not completely gotten rid of suspicion, and has also been brought to the Zhao family.
Pushing open the door of Zhao's house, I saw Widow Zhao lying on the ground, with a knife in her chest, and she sprinkled her chest, and Widow Zhao's daughter, Zhao Rong'er, was lying on Widow Zhao's body, crying.
Walking to the back room again, Widow Li hung herself on the beam of the kang without an inch, her tongue stretched out so long, and her palms were full of blood, which was not terrifying.
Shui Xingzhou was busy calling for head arrest and servants, and conducted an autopsy and investigation of the scene on the spot.
It is worthy of the head-catching and pretending from Fucheng, and I looked at it very carefully, and after a while, I found a few suspicious points.
Widow Li's other clothes are all there, except for the lack of profanity;
The hand on Widow Li's hand is consistent with the blood on the knife on Widow Zhao's chest, and it is all Widow Zhao's blood.
In Widow Zhao's needlework basket, there is a sewn men's shoe.
The head catcher first told Shui Xingzhou: "My lord, judging from the scene of the crime, it was Widow Li who killed Widow Zhao with hatred, and Widow Li committed suicide again, as for the motive for the killing, it needs to be found out again." ”
Shui Xingzhou looked at Zhao Rong'er, who was crying with pear blossoms and rain, and said, "Miss Zhao, your mother was killed yesterday, did you hear any movement?" ”
Zhao Rong'er's eyes flickered twice, and then she shook her head desperately and said: "Hui, Hui, my lord, the people's daughter, the people's girl slept to death, no, I didn't hear, anything, any movement." ”
Although Zhao Rong'er's argument is a bit far-fetched, it is not unreasonable.
In the past, Widow Zhao often recruited some men to come back, in order to avoid Zhao Rong'er, the two houses were opened separately, and she had a heart to die if she couldn't hear it, but the flickering words in Zhao Rong'er's eyes revealed that she was hiding something.
Shui Xingzhou still wanted to ask, and he stepped forward to salute and said: "Lord Hui, this case may be related to a man, and this Widow Li is a double body." ”
Shui Xingzhou's brows suddenly tightened, but he didn't expect that there was a case within a case, which became more and more complicated.
And the faces of the catchers and Li Lizheng are colorful, so wonderful.
Li Lizheng's face was colorful, and he was naturally ashamed that there was an unchaste woman in his village, or an unchaste widow;
The faces of the catchers were colorful, naturally they heard that this case was a tragedy between two widows and a man, what could be more popular than this "peach-colored story"?
Shui Xingzhou's face turned pale and said, "Zhao Rong'er, don't you hurry up!! Otherwise, Zhang Daya will be your end!! ”
Zhao Rong'er was so frightened that she suddenly fell to the ground, tears flowed down like beads with broken threads, and she choked up for a long time: "The people said, the people all said." ”
Zhao Rong'er really did not hide it at all, and poured beans on the bamboo tube about her mother's unchaste affair with a man, and did not hide it at all.
Good guys, from Li Erzhu and Wang Sanhu in the East Village, to He Dalang and Liu Sanquan in the West Village, and even the old lady Liu, all of them were told to each other, and the things they received, the small two catties of millet and the big one or two silver, said everything in detail, and even Shui Zhizhou had to admire Zhao Rong'er's memory.
Li Lizheng's face is the most exciting, I can't wait to find a crack to get into, the only thing I am glad about is that he is not the guest of Widow Zhao, otherwise he will really lose the face of the ancestors and ancestors.
Shui Xingzhou waved his hand impatiently and said, "Zhao Rong'er!" The official asked which man your mother has been close to recently, and she is also related to Widow Li, who told you to start talking about it ten years ago? ”
Zhao Rong'er wiped the spit on the corner of her mouth and said solemnly: "My lord, the folk girl went back to the house early last night to rest, I don't know which man came." But the folk girl knew that my mother wanted to get rid of Ma Liu'er's entanglement for me, and introduced him to Widow Li, and my mother told me privately that the matter was done. ”
This time, the order was given without using the boat, and the two catchers were led by Li Lizheng's son and went straight to Ma Liu'er's house.
After a while, he brought Ma Liu'er over, and seeing that the clothes were disheveled and his eyes were blurred, he must have been dragged out of the bed.
Seeing the crowd in a courtyard, Ma Liu'er woke up when he saw the two corpses of Widow Zhao and Widow Li, and fell to the ground in fright, so frightened that he couldn't speak, and it took a long time to kowtow like pounding garlic and say: "My lord, spare my life!" Adults spare their lives, these two people are not small killings, definitely not ......"
At this kowtow, the originally messy clothes on his body loosened, and a red obscene clothes fell from his arms, stabbing people's eyes so much that they couldn't open them.
Ma Liuer was dumbfounded, never expected that he was just greedy for a glass of wine, and he actually hid the "relics" of the dead on his body, involving the plot of two lives and three corpses;
Afraid that Ma Liu'er would still quibble, the catchers compared the cotton shoes in the Zhao family's sewing basket to Ma Liu'er's feet, which was not big or small, just right......
